About

I have about 28 years of experience in Monroe and surrounding counties, which includes Morgan, Bartholomew, Brown, Owen, and Martin.My fees are (somewhat) negotiable, and with complicated and difficult criminal cases I often visit with the defendant first for a more nominal fee in order to assess the case.Perhaps you are used to attorneys saying you need to hire them but I don't believe that is true in about 1/3 of the calls I get, because often the problems can be solved with a consultation.My rates are either fixed fee or hourly - IF hourly the funds are placed in an escrow account and drawn down as the funds are used with the remainder returned at the end of the case. My hourly rate is a bit competitive and, for most cases, I do not charge for drive time; all other hourly lawyers do. I do my level best to make things move along quietly and peacefuly, as the outcome is often better.First call is always free. I want to make sure you need my servcies or, if not, I can refer you. The goal is to get the best result, period.

To start with, I was referred to Roy from a friend that had previously hired him. I had gotten in contact with Roy and explained the situation I was in. He was very honest with me, ran me through what my charge meant and the steps I needed to take in order to handle the situation in a calm and mature manner. I made many calls to him and he gave me legal advice, all before I had even hired him to represent me. I knew from that point Mr. Graham was the man I wanted to work on my case. When I officially had him take on my case, he had no hesitation getting the ball rolling. From the beginning, he was nothing but honest with me. Not once did he ever tell me a result that he knew I wanted and needed to hear. As a young person still in college, it scared the hell out of me hearing that, but the fact he was nothing but honest, I really respected it. He would give me all the underlying information on the details regarding laws on my case, the process of it and outcomes that could happen with taking different routes through the entirety of it. This is the number one thing that made him not only a great lawyer, but an even better person. Throughout the case, Roy’s main goal was to always get the best result he could. He never promised me a result and never tried to predict a result in the end. Therefore, he kept the constant fight for a year and a half of the best possible outcome. Through this philosophy, Roy built a folder with many forms of paper work, documents, and files needed in order to pursue the best possible outcome. This organization by him really helped throughout when it came time for court hearings, depositions, communication with the prosecutor and collaborations with details I would find along the way as well. There were many legal questions that floated in this case, but eventually were answered as time went on through Roy’s constant grind and compassion for this case. While pursuing the best possible outcome, Mr. Graham’s communication with me as his client was second to none. This was really reassuring to me during a difficult time. If I had a question or concern, I would call him knowing he would either answer right away, or if he was busy in a meeting or court, he would return my call within 10-15 minutes. Send Roy an email, I would get a response within 12 hours. Oh, and if you like jokes, a phone call will never end without one. (I have the answers to them all if you need them). Communication with Roy was great and is very important in a lawyer-client relationship. At the end of the day, hiring a lawyer is going to, of course, cost some money. However, with Roy, he is VERY REASONABLE. His prices are based on a retainer fee with the type of charge you have. But do not freak out, Roy does not charge you for every nick and cranny throughout the case. AND he will surely not overcharge you for his work. Roy will work with you, as long as you are willing to work with him. At the end of the day, he has a job to do for you, and he will do that job in order for your best possible outcome. I know this is long, but Mr. Graham left an impact on my life. Throughout this case I did a lot of work to aid Roy in ways I never thought I could. I found things along the way that really gauged my interest in law. Roy guided me through things and truly taught me some life lessons along the way. We built a relationship solely due to the fact that he is a very kind, genuine person that really does care about the people’s cases he is working on. If you are having trouble with the law (especially the criminal side) do not hesitate to contact Roy. He got me the best possible outcome in my case and I will forever be thankful for his services. THANK YOU ROY! -A

I hired Roy Graham after having a bad experience with a previous lawyer. Roy was hired by me to help me through divorcing my now ex-husband and gain full legal custody of the child we share. I won full legal custody of my daughter and the divorce was settled somewhat peacefully. Roy Graham is exceptional at his job. Although seemingly scattered brained at times; Roy balances his duties in his own way to get the job done. Roy also has a kind and humble heart, which adds a compassionate twist to his career as a lawyer. HIRE THIS MAN! Roy Graham is the best lawyer I've ever had experience with and does well at what he does.

Attorney Roy was literally the best attorney I have ever met! Helped me a lot on the expungement of my underage drinking case which in turn I can continue my VISA application. The expungement process went a lot faster than what I was expected also.

He did a excellent job for me. He was very polite, his work was very professional, and the rates were very reasonable. I would recommend him as a lawyer to anybody that needs help.

When I was younger, I ran into a situation. Went to a nature park/campground to escape the busy urban life. Unfortunately the trip did not go accordingly. I found myself getting arrested and charged with a criminal recklessness (d felony). I thought my life was over. I had to face the reality of being labeled as a criminal. But shortly after, I was able to obtain Mr. Grahams information from the court. We were able to meet right away and he provided me with the STRAIGHT facts, no b.s. He promised his best and asked that I be patient and do my part. One of the first words of wisdom he shared with me: "thought = speech = action." Still today,, think of those words to help me be more compassionate and understanding in every situation. Mr. Graham was with me throughout the whole process. With the guidance of Mr. Graham, I was able to redeem myself and clear my name.

I had a few old charges that I wanted to get expunged so I called up Roy who was quick to take up the case. I got his name through Avvo, and found the other reviews here to be very accurate. It was a straightforward experience overall. Roy is great guy, who got everything sorted out very quickly. I could not be happier with the speed and efficiency he was able to file my expungement. I've had a few other lawyers in the past and Roy was definitely one of the easiest to talk to and discuss my case with. He explained the entire process to me in great detail and clarified all the points that I had questions about in a way that was really easy to understand. He kept me up to date continually about where I stood at each stage of the process which went through successfully. In our initial conversation he told me that his rates were flexible based on your situation, and that he was fairly flexible on payment terms. But after he told me what his baseline rates were I just paid the full price, I found the cost was already incredibly reasonable from the get go. I would highly recommend Roy to other people looking to file for expungements.

Hiring Mr. Graham was a very good decision for myself and for my case. He did an excellent job and guided me very professionally from the beginning to end. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing sound, professional legal council.

I must say when I first spoke with Roy he was abrasive and exacting and I only could hope he would bring this same energy into the court room. I was not disappointed. Beyond this he turned out to be understanding and empathetic. He helped and worked with me all the way through. Just prepare yourself for a few cheesy jokes. lol

Roy is an outstanding person and attorney. My experience with him is good and we go back 20 yrs. Roy is very reasonable, and I can say from personal experience he has integrity. We have been to jury trial and recently prevented one. I feel he is one of the best.
